Exactly zimbos_05 that's how we progressively get worse. We lose all institutional memory, especially from winners. Olonga, a hero to a generation of young black Zimbos, has been lost to Aus (not even invovled in their cricket) instead of being in and around the sport - even as a tv commentator or a...

The deal was coming but the ICC screwed them over anyway. Very ominous sign. They want us gone. They do want us gone. Who likes a misbehaving beggar? Better an enterprising street kid with potential to make it rich given an opportunity. Our misbehaviour is now seen in comparison with potential gain...

What concessions did the SRC eke out? I expected the reinstatement to be honest but as I said a few pages back I didn't expect it to be with immediate effect. Kirsty Coventry, since she came in, has always talked about putting the athletes first and I suspect she pressured this compromise. But will ...

Interesting that Rusere , Matibiri and Tiffin's names have been deleted from the ICC Umpires page. How rude https://www.icc-cricket.com/about/cricket/match-officials/umpire-panels Pycroft is still there although he's not listed as a Match Referee for any upcoming games. These are sanctions, so let'...

You are missing a point encore. Legally the SRC can do what it did because an act of parliament empowers it to do so. Previous SRC boards were either incompetent, not interested or corrupt to exercise any authority vested in them by parliament. Now, I'll grant you that obtaining a court judgement pr...

As a long, long aside, since I have not seen this mentioned, I will put some context into why I am willing to trust Mlotshwa and his new SRC. Mlotshwa was appointed directly from his previous post as Chairman of the Sables Trust. 'What's that?' you say. First, some context. Zim rugby is probably the...

I don't like the chances of the SRC against challenge from the Staff and Member Associations. It may just be that the negotiations/meeting is simply to say we step back you continue but lets hold the elections by this time and we ensure everything runs smoothly from there. Whatever the case might b...

The ICC should be ashamed of themselves, by sticking with the corrupt ZC board they are condemning Zimbabwean cricket to death. They have turned their backs on well-known cricket administrators with upstanding records like Dave Ellman-Brown and Vince Hogg and instead continued to entrust the game t...

I think you're right TapsC, they aren't winning the PR war. There's been a few own goals. By making this very grand and public announcement on the radio, online, etc about "turn up for work on August 1"... well if nobody turns up the interim board will look very weak and powerless. So I think they ...
